On your bike!!!

Today's card I have to share is using a stamp from one of my favourite Unity sets - One Precious Life.

I made my card base using a sheet of 8" x 8" cardstock that I folded in half. The papers are all My Mind's Eye. I stamped the bike using black Versafine ink on to patterned paper and used pencils to colour the flowers:

Materials used:

DCWV cardstock, My Mind's Eye papers

Unity stamp (as above), black Versafine ink, Derwent pencils

organza ribbons, pins.

Thanks for visiting!

Hi everyone - a super quick post from me to show a super quick mini card. I've used my new favorite letter stamp set from Paper Smooches (Alphadot). The letters are just so cute & quirky!

 I've also used an old Unity store kit that Emily used to sell. I've embossed the image and letters in white and paper pieced the flower.

Have a happy Friday!

Kids play

Hello.

Here is a quick card using the fab "Kids play"set from Flourishes.

I love this set as its full of not only lovely sentiments but some gorgeous silhouette images.

There are lots more new sets from Flourishes.

You can find them here.

Thanks for looking.

Ooo, Have You Seen...?

Hiya, Kim Dellow here, I haven't managed to get a make done this week so I thought I would pop in to show you some of the yummy stamps available over in the Make The Day Special shop instead! 

So have you seen these fabby Halloween stamps from Lawn Fawn?

So cute and I love the faces on the ghosts!

What about these make your own Snowmen stamps also from Lawn Fawn! Cool!

Now I have a bit of a thing for maps so the Travel Notes stamp set from Unity / Simple Stories is perfect!

I could go on for ages but I think I will show one more before I go!

This one is from Flourishes and is called Sweet Days Of Summer and is very on trend with the Silhouettes! So sweet!

Well hopefully back to normal services next week with a make!

Have a good week.

Kim

Thank You!

Hi there!
I am still on a theme of 'Thank You' this week! This time I used the 'Thank You' set by Flourishes available from Emily here

Here is a page in my mini Journal...not sure if it needs anything else.....I created the background using paints, a stencil and Gesso. I wrote the words with black ink. When I  was making my ATC my Journal was open and I just thought that this flower looked very gentle and went with the words. I stamped it with Versafine and clear embossed and coloured with ProMarkers.

I was going to make a mask to use on this...but couldn't find my Post It notes!!! So I just stamped and embossed the flower and then stamped the background stamp with VersaMark and clear embossed. I coloured the background with the Adirondak inks I had out on my desk.. and water splattered! I coloured the flower with ProMarkers and they have taken on a slightly different colour over the inks, which I was quite pleased with! I stamped and embossed the sentiment and edged it with Gld embossing.

Thanks for looking, I hope you have a good Monday and I'll see you soon.

Another Christmas card here to add to my (slowly increasing) pile! This one uses the Unity Itty Bitty stamp "Silhouette Songbird" available in the shop here.

I used My Mind's Eye papers and stamped directly on to one of them using brown Stazon ink before layering up various papers. I coloured a chipboard flourish using a gold Prismacolor pencil which I also used around the edge of the card:

Materials used:

Papermania cardstock, My Mind's Eye papers

Unity Itty Bitty stamp (as above), brown Stazon ink, gold Prismacolor pencil

Nestabilities die-cut, K & Co sticker, Papermania chipboard

cotton lace, lucite leaves and beaded stamen.

Thanks for visiting!

You're Sweet!

Bigger isn't always better, right? I've a teeny little tag to share with you today that I made using the scraps leftover from making a layout. And, you may have guessed this already, but I like it more than the layout! It's just so cute and dinky!



Just layer a few pieces of co-ordinating papers onto a cardstock base then delve into your stamp stash. I pulled out the closest set - Admit One from Lawn Fawn's Summer Release, found a little space for my sentiment and then added a 'popped up' element stamp. Punch a hole and thread through some leftover ribbon and you have an extra little 'sumthin, sumthin' to add to a card or present when you need to. And it takes less time than sorting your scraps or tidying your desk!
